YellowScan Unveils Its New UAV-LiDAR Systems

Montpellier, 21 September 2017 – YellowScan is committed to provide the most reliable integrated imaging systems and customer support for demanding UAV applications. Since 2012, the team’s dedication to fulfill high resolution and high-quality survey requirements has fueled research and development.

This year at Intergeo, YellowScan is presenting its next generation integrated LiDARs. Ergonomic, robust and easy-to-use, these systems are designed by surveyors to serve surveyors, civil engineers, archeologists or environment scientists with a turn-key solution that can be mounted on any drone for short-time data processing needs.

Mapper II and YellowScan Vx completes the "Just press the Yellow Button" product line including YellowScan Surveyor, the successful world lightest all integrated LiDAR for UAV, and the LiveStation, the real-time in flight LiDAR monitoring kit (software & radio-modems).
